Active tab name in Masthead

Hi All,
How can i fetch the name of active tab at level 1 of TLN in a variable so that i can use it in a different iView. Actually the requirement is to get the Name of active tab from TLN iView and use it in masthead iView. Please suggest.
Regards,
Nishant Singh

Hi Nishanth,
Are you using a custom masthead or default masthead?
I believe you can do it this way:-
1. If some other custom developed application(iView) is there, include the snippet of code to read the current selected node in TLN.
2. Put this as an HTTP sesion parameter.(these has to be done before the stage where you have to show the selected node in Masthead- please elborate your requirement/context a little bit).
3. Read the HTTP session variable from your masthead application(if it is default include the snippet of code for reading the http session variable) . If is it your custom masthead, pretty easy, same way but you can do whatever you want.
Thanks,
Jakes.

  • Since upgrading (FF29.0-Windows 8.0), only the active tab on any given Firefox window has the website name;other tabs have no name,only site logo. How do I fix?

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 29.0 (running Windows 8.0). Since upgrading, only the active tab on any given Firefox window has the site name. All other inactive tabs generally have a site logo on the left side of the tab, but none of the other tabs have the website name. If I push Alt + Tab to cycle through the windows, the website name will then show up on each tab, but once I select a window to work in the website names disappear from the tabs again, except for the active tab. Is this a feature of the upgrade? Is there a setting to have the site names appear? I would really like to have the ability to see what site is on each tab without selecting.

  • Active Tab has floating chinese characters as well as the tab name how do I get rid of this?

    Previously this seemed to driven by an addin which I removed. Now each time Firefox updates itself every 1-2 days this problem reappears without the original addin. Because the chinese characters float over the top of the tab name it makes it difficult to read the tab name is is plain irritating.

    hi, some other affected users tied the issue to the mcafee site advisor extension - please try to disable or remove that in case you have it present.

  • How can I get Firefox 4 to display the URL of active tabs in the location bar so I can see and copy it?

    The only URL that I ever see in the location bar is the last one I typed there. No matter which tab I activate, the last typed URL is displayed. When I need to copy the URL of an active tab to paste into an email or something I can't see it.
    The location bar used to display the URL of each active tab and you could simply click in the address field and the URL would be highlighted so you could edit/copy it or jump to the end of a very long URL to see the final file name.
    I can't get this feature to work and I really need this feature as I need to copy URL's quite often. When I have multiple tabs active I sometimes forget which one is for which domain and need to see the URL. It is very annoying to surf blind.
    Please help me with this issue as quickly as possible so I can once again do my work easily and with the firefox browser instead of chrome. :(

    A couple of possible causes.
    The first is the file that stores details of browsing history and bookmarks is corrupt. For details on how to fix that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite
    Another possible cause is an add-on interfering with the location bar. To test this, use the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • Why is the tab name showing the old file type when I try to download a pdf from our wordpress sites?

    We have two wordpress sites. On each site we have uploaded some pdf files that viewers can download. I noticed that when you try to download a pdf file the tab name that appears when you click "Download" is not the same as the filename. For instance: when I try to download a pdf file titled "Weekly Retail Skeptic". In firefox - the tab name will say "Microsoft Word - Note_2013_0523_Skeptic - Note_0523_Skeptic.pdf". It seems like the browser is reading what the file was before it was converted to a pdf.
    I have tried both "print to pdf" in word as well as converting the word document to a pdf document using Acrobat.

    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

  • Determine the active tab in a selection screen

    Hello,
    is it possible to determine which tab is currently activated in a selection screen with several tabs?
    I will include different code in different tabs. When pressing the "execute" button the  program should return the active tab (as a value).
    Thanks
    Florian Schwaiger

    Hi florain,
    Before you can use a tabstrip control in your ABAP program, you must create a control for each control in the declaration part of your program using the following statement:
    CONTROLS <ctrl> TYPE TABSTRIP.
    where <ctrl> is the name of the tabstrip area on a screen in the ABAP program. The control allows the ABAP program to work with the tabstrip control. The statement declares a structure with the name <ctrl> . The only component of this structure that you need in your program is called ACTIVETAB.
    Use in the PBO event
    Before the screen is displayed, you use the control to set the tab page that is currently active. To do this, assign the function code of the corresponding tab title to the component ACTIVETAB:
    <ctrl>-ACTIVETAB = <fcode>.
    When you page at the SAPgui, you only need to do this once before the screen is displayed. This initializes the tabstrip control. The default active tab page is the first page. After this, the page activated when the user chooses a tab title is set within SAPgui.
    When you page on the application server, you must assign the active page both before the screen is displayed for the first time, and each time the user pages. At the same time, you must set the required subscreen screen.
    You can suppress a tab page dynamically by setting the ACTIVE field of table SCREEN to 0 for the corresponding tab title.
    Use in the PAI event
    In the PAI event, ACTIVETAB contains the function code of the last active tab title on the screen.
    When you page in the SAPgui, this allows you to find out the page that the user can currently see. When you page at the application server, the active tab page is controlled by the ABAP program anyway.
    The OK_CODE field behaves differently according to the paging method:
    Paging in the SAPgui
    When you page in the SAPgui, the PAI event is not triggered when the user chooses a tab title, and the OK_CODE field is not filled. The OK_CODE field is only filled by user actions in the GUI status or when the user chooses a pushbutton either outside the tabstrip control or on one of the subscreens.
    Paging on the application server
    If you are paging at the application server, the PAI event is triggered when the user chooses a tab title, and the OK_CODE field is filled with the corresponding function code.
    To page through the tabstrip control, you must assign the function code to the ACTIVETAB component of the control:
    <ctrl>-ACTIVETAB = <ok_code>.
    This statement overwrites the function code of the last active tab page with that of the new tab title. At the same time, you must ensure that the correct subscreen is inserted in the subscreen area.
    Otherwise, tabstrip controls are handled like normal subscrens in ABAP programs, that is, the ABAP program of a subscreen screen must contain the dialog modules called from the flow logic of the subscreen.
    Examples
    Tabstrip control, paging at SAPgui
    REPORT DEMO_DYNPRO_TABSTRIP_LOCAL.
    CONTROLS MYTABSTRIP TYPE TABSTRIP.
    DATA: OK_CODE TYPE SY-UCOMM,
          SAVE_OK TYPE SY-UCOMM.

    ENDMODULE.
    MODULE CANCEL INPUT.
      LEAVE PROGRAM.
    ENDMODULE.
    MODULE USER_COMMAND INPUT.
      SAVE_OK = OK_CODE.
      CLEAR OK_CODE.
      IF SAVE_OK = 'OK'.
        MESSAGE I888(SABAPDOCU) WITH 'MYTABSTRIP-ACTIVETAB ='

  • Get the selected or active tab on a tabstrip to show different content

    Hi All,
    I have two tabs (TAB1 and TAB2) on a tabstrip. And on each of these tabs I have a table. Both tables are binded to the same context node.
    The property selectedTab of the Tabstrip is binded to an attribute "TAB" of a context node "TABSTRIP".
    I defined a supply function on this context node "TABSTRIP" in order to show the TAB1 by the first building up the view.
    METHOD supply_tabstrip .
    * local structure for the activ TAB
      DATA: stru_tabstrip TYPE if_componentcontroller=>element_tabstrip.
      CLEAR stru_tabstrip.
    * set the default-value
    * --> This is valid untill the user choose another Tab
      MOVE 'TAB1' TO stru_tabstrip-tab.
    * bind the filled structure to the context
      node->bind_structure(
        new_item             = stru_tabstrip
        set_initial_elements = abap_true ).
    ENDMETHOD.
    I also definded a supply function on the context node of the table (which is mentioned above) to fill it with content.
    Now i need to define a query to fill the table with two different content and for this I need to know which tab is selected by the user. How can i find which tab is selected or which tab is active?
    Thank you for any help

  • TabStrip: Know wich tab is the active tab

    Hi all,
    How can i know wich tab is the active tab in runtime?
    Could you put a sample code?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Create one context node with 1 attriute of type string. let's say it's name is "Active_Tab". Bind this attribute with property "selectedTab" . You must have assigned some names to all the tabls in tab strip.
    At run time, when you will read this attribute, it will give you the name of currently selected tab.
    Thanks

  • [SOLVED] Reverting Guake terminal tab names back to 'Terminal #'

    The new version of Guake (0.4.3) implemented 'Better Tab Titling'.  This means that instead of a new tab name being 'Terminal #' (where # is an auto incrementing integer), it instead forced the title to be equal to the VTE prompt.
    My issues were that there was no way to set a preference to switch back (as I prefer the simple tab name) and that tab names could/would take a very large amount of space (as it would put my whole username@server:/path/to/where/i/am/at).
    So   I figured out how to fix and thought I'd share in case anyone else would like to switch back:
    NOTE:  I believe python is spacing-sensitive (please correct me if I'm wrong).  All the lines (added/edited) are indented 8 spaces.
    edit /usr/bin/guake
    find: self.selected_tab = None
    after that line, add:
            # holds the number of created tabs. This counter will not be
            # reset to avoid problems of repeated tab names.
            self.tab_counter = 0
    find: def on_terminal_title_changed(self, vte, box):
    after that line add:
            return
    find: Adding a new radio button to the tabbar
    the next line will read:
            label = box.terminal.get_window_title() or _("Terminal")
    change to:
            label = box.terminal.get_window_title() or _('Terminal %s') % self.tab_counter
    find self.tabs.pack_start(bnt, expand=False, padding=1)
    after that line add:
            self.tab_counter += 1
    After editing the file, restart Guake for the change to take effect.
    Beemer

    I have been using Guake for years and I think the tab bar is in the way. I disabled it a very long time ago and didn't look back.
    Here are the shortcuts that I use:
    "~" to toggle it.
    Ctrl+T for a new tab (just like in Firefox, Chromium).
    F1 and F2 for next and previous tab.
    F3 close tab.
    Basically, I don't need more than two tabs at a time; three tops, in very rare cases.
    Hope it helps.

    Hi jcatx2013, we don't really have enough information on your system to make specific suggestions...
    Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • How to get current tab name or tab id or related info?

    Hi Jari,
    Thanks for your info. Even if set authorize schema to tabs, I still need to get the relationship between "current tab" and "privilege&users". So I think evrm's hard-code method above is avaliable.I agree with Jari: APEX provides Authorization schemes specifically for this purpose. You need to reverse your thinking on how to implement this.
    For more information consult the documentation on APEX security, specifically using authorization schemes to restrict access to pages and control rendering of components.
    Tutorial: Adding Security to your Database Application (APEX 4.0)
    Use Authorization Schemes to control access/rendering for security ("only managers see/access this page and it's associated tab"); and Conditions to control rendering for functional reasons ("region only displayed if account is in arrears").
    Authorization Schemes have the benefits of being reusable, performing better, and allowing central maintenance of security-related code. This makes it easier to change the implementation&mdash;say moving from role information held in database tables to groups defined in LDAP.
    I worked for a number of years with an application where authorization schemes are not properly used (decisions made before my involvement) and all security and business logic relating to rendering and processing is wrapped up in spaghetti code in conditions. It's impossible to maintain.
    It is of course advisable to make both authorization scheme and business logic condition code more reusable and maintainable by locating it in API packages.

  • I am having two problems with tabs in FF 4.0.1: no close "x"; and new tabs don't open adjacent to active tab.

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [/questions/819008]</blockquote><br>
    I don't know if it's a glith with mine, a change in the software, or a setting that isn't set, but my tabs don't have an "x" to close them.
    Also, my previous version of Firefox opened a new tab adjacent to the active tab. Version 4.0.1 seems to have returned to the older standard of opening tabs at the end of the list. Is there a way to switch where new tabs open?

    You can reset the tab prefs on the about:config page in case they have been changed.
    * browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
    * browser.tabs.closeButtons
    If you want a close X on the first tab if only one tab is open then set browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false.

    If you have tab related extensions then check their settings (Options).

  • Why does right-click & "Open Link in New Tab" make the original tab name to change to "New Tab" when I back-arrow in the original tab to reach the original page

    I use Google as my home page.
    When I do a search in Google I have a practice of opening the search links in a new tab by right-clicking on the link and selecting "Open Link in New Tab". That way I can examine multiple links from the search page, which is now open in the first tab.
    The problem that occurs is that when I use the back-arrow in the Navagation bar to return the first tab to its original page, I find the tab name of the original page to be "New Tab" rather than "Google" and I have to click on the "Reload current page" in the Navigation bar to return the tab name to "Google".
    I'm using Firefox-25 on a Linux-Mint 64-bit platform with KDE-4.9.5.

    The problem is just with the name of the tab, not with the contents of the page -- the page looks normal??
    I ask about the page because Firefox 23 seems to have introduced a problem with Firefox's "fast back-forward cache" on the Google search results page. It is related to the "instant prediction results" feature interacting with Firefox is some different way.
